The Region

The Metro South Region, Take a Closer Look! . . .

he Metro South region offers the best of many worlds, all of the cultural and corporate advantages of the city with the natural beauty and serenity of historic New England. Residents of Metro South, located just south of Boston, can always find an array of recreational, cultural and community events throughout the region. The eighteen communities that comprise the Metro South region are home to nearly 350,000 people, making this region the fastest growing area in Massachusetts. The diverse economies of the area prosper from manufacturing, retail, wholesale trade and service industries. Employment opportunities are plentiful and several business resources are available for entrepreneurs. EDUCATION The Metro South region is particularly proud of its innovative communitybased schools. Many new public and private schools provide exceptional technology and preparation for the children of the region. Higher education is attainable within the region at Bridgewater State College, Massasoit Community College, and Stonehill College. Harvard, MIT, Brown, and many prestigious universities are within minutes of the Metro South area. HOUSING Housing costs are extremely competitive in Metro South. Prices are substantially lower than in the immediate suburbs of Boston. The region offers many housing options including modern condominiums and apartments. HEALTH CARE The Metro South region offers a number of fine health care facilities including four major hospitals. Brockton Hospital, Good Samaritan Medical Center, New 16

England Sinai Hospital and Rehabilitation Center, and the Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center provide state-ofthe-art medical care to area residents. Combined, these healthcare facilities represent the region’s largest segment of employment. TRANSPORTATION One of the greatest assets of the region is its location. The area has great access to major highways, including Routes 93, 95, 495, 3, and 24. Public transportation is available through the Brockton Area Transit (BAT), which provides intercity bus service and the Mass Bay Transit Authority (MBTA), which provides rail service to Boston. Commuter rail service from the MBTA runs three lines through Metro South and provides passengers direct transit to and from Boston. The region is centrally located between two major airports, Logan International in Boston and T.F. Green in Rhode Island. In Metro South, all your transportation options are safe and convenient.

METRO SOUTH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Several weekly community newspapers provide additional coverage of local events. The area’s local radio stations include WXBR (1460 AM), WATD (95.9) and local college stations. All major television network programming is clearly received from Boston and Providence, as well as educational programs from Boston's Public Broadcasting Station. All eighteen communities provide cable service to residents. CULTURE Metro South is close enough to Boston to enjoy its theater, symphony, sports arenas, and museums, but far enough away to have developed its own dynamic cultural and recreational resources. The region takes pride in the Fuller Craft Museum, Brockton Symphony Orchestra, Brockton Shoe

Museum, Brockton Fire Museum, Campanelli Stadium, The Children’s Museum in Easton, Ames Nowell and Borderland State Parks, Brockton Rox and D.W Field Park. The area has several public golf courses, tennis clubs, racquetball courts and fitness centers. In 2012, The City of Brockton and The Metro South Region welcomed the 22 ft Rocky Marciano statue at Champions Park on the Campus of Brockton High School, which now serves as an attraction of world interest.

At local municipal parks, residents can enjoy swimming, hiking, hunting, boating, and other sports. The Metro South region is also home to several private and public golf courses and the abundance of lakes and ponds make it easy to find a place to fish. A full listing of outdoor activities can be found in the Massachusetts Getaway Guide published by the state’s Office of Travel and Tourism. There are also terrific indoor facilities for tennis, racquetball, bowling, skating, and exercising. There is always plenty to do in the Metro South region!

Do You Need An Intern? Join the Connecting Activities Partnership Connecting Activities is a unique program where area employers provide youth with a meaningful worksite learning experience, building academic, technical, and workplace skills. Internships assist students in making more informed decisions about the education they need to be successful in a variety of career paths, including college, technical training, apprenticeships, and more. Through Connecting Activities, students achieve more learning hours by extending the classroom to the workplace while providing more adults who can support these students in one-to-one relationships.

Funded by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education Participating Schools: Southeastern Regional Vocational Technical High School, Brockton Public Schools, Whitman-Hanson Regional High School, Stoughton High School and North River Collaborative Schools.

Brockton Revisited, a book written by Brockton Historian James E. Benson, with foreword by Mayor Linda M. Balzotti and published by Arcadia Publishing, is now available for purchase! Brockton Revisited takes readers through the city's pinnacle of prestige and power and an idyllic time in history in the 1950s and 1960s. It tells the story of Brockton, the “City of Champions”, earned through its fame for champions like Rocky Marciano, the great shoe industry barons, the immigrants who worked behind the shoe bench and the entrepreneurs who followed the shoe industry. Many photographs were taken by Stanley Bauman. Brockton Revisited and Brockton are available for purchase at the Brockton Historical Society for $20 (discounted from the cover price). Proceeds benefit the society. They can also be purchased online at www.brocktonhistoricalsociety.org or at the Brockton Historical Society, 216 N. Pearl Street, the first and third Sundays of the month, 2-4pm. Look for Benson’s newest book, Brockton History in Old Postcards, in August!
